Nachitoches meat pies - my way

When I was a poor kid in Louisiana it was a real treat to get to go to the store and buy Nachitoches meat pies after school when we had extra cash.
After searching the web and cook books high and low I found and tried about 10 different recipes for the meat pies, but non were what I remembered.

So after a whole lot of trial and error, this is what I came up with.

These pies get better if they "set a little". so after you've made them. put them in the refrigerator for a day or two before you freeze them to let the flavors combine more.

Brown meat in a pan with all vegetables and seasonings using a potato masher if necessary to get the meat really fine, make sure veggies are cooked through
My family doesn't like heat spice, so your choice of sausage based on the heat you prefer.

Drain grease off leaving no more than a Tbsp of grease in pan.
Before placing back on heat add flour, stirring to make pasty.

Place back on heat. Drizzling and constantly stirring milk in until fully incorporated, and you have a thick gooey substance in the pan.
